Carrots, Onions, Squash, Potatoes... and a puppy!
For us the holidays are a chance to pause, step back and catch our breath... Instead, this holiday has been a bit busier than most as we've had our hands full of puppy. The vegetables really do much better with a canine patrol in action, from leaving scent to physically scaring away animals. I can'1 read more »
Veggies for the shortest days of the year
We've been wrapping up work with the daylight, and the days are getting so short! Despite the cold and snowy days, Thursday was glorious and we were able to harvest the leeks with the lovely warm breeze. There's lots of fresh treats still from the fields, and the full roster of storage veggies as w1 read more »
New winter rhythms at the farm, but so much fresh green still!
In the wintertime we switch to packing up veggies once a month - so we'll be filling orders for next week, and not again until the week of December 6th. So when you're filling up your shopping cart, be sure to tuck in enough for the month! It's last call this week for chard, celery, and likely pars1 read more »
Tucking veggies away ~ Filling up your cart
We've been busy filling up our winter storage rooms, to the ceilings! Stephanie's the mastermind behind all the careful stashing. We've saved a little room as there's still some veggies to come in from the fields like carrots and Brussels sprouts, but all the frost sensitive crops were safe from la1 read more »

Two more weeks of fall veggies, Oct 20th and Oct 27th
Harvest season is always a dance around the weather, but it has felt eerie this fall without juggling frosts yet! Fingers crossed they hold off a little longer as we pull it all in. We've enjoyed a number of gorgeous sunsets and moon rises of late coming in from the fields, a sure sign of the seaso1 read more »

About the farm
Heather and Stephanie have been running Fiddlehead Farm since 2012 in Prince Edward County, Ontario. With a small team of employees they are ecologically growing twelve acres of tasty vegetables. Selling veggies year round, they pack up shares in spring, summer and winter seasons.
While they grew up in cities it is their shared passions for good food and the environment that led them to start their own vegetable farm after studying in ecology and politics. They started with a modest group of farm shares and a handful of farmers' markets. With the help of family, friends, and a dedicated following of both veggie box members and market customers the farm has steadily grown from its humble beginnings.
